Things You'll Need

Pineapples - Eat pineapples. Bromelin, a component found in pineapples, works as a cleanser for your lungs. It allows you to take in more oxygen and take deeper breaths by increasing the lungs' elasticity.

OMG Julie, that is a good thing to know! I guess I won't be eating any of that for a bit! I am struggling with constipation most of the time these days! Not to mention that back of gas into my stomach making me look like I'm 6 months pregnant.

I see Gastro doc on 29th, for a scan of stomach. But then on to make sure no more polyps from 6 years ago. Had 2 benign, and 2 pre-cancerous! Let's just hope that goes well. Thanks for the info!

Guess I will just keep on with my research! I love to research stuff! Nothing in particular mostly!

I had not heard that about pineapples either...I do know that they are good for reducing inflammation, I was told that when I was flaring with my RA. I don't have that constipation issue...so that's not a problem. Cutting a pineapple IS an issue. At my son's cafe, one of the people working on prep posted on Facebook..."Just who do you think looked at a pineapple and thought, wow, this would be a good thing to eat." I had to laugh because she was cutting pineapples for fruit salad and I think she was a little frustrated.

This is some good research Sandy-9-17-17, thanks for passing it along.

Same here. Research is my best friend! My latest researching is crystals and their inclusion in christian worship, wood/laminate flooring vs. carpet, horses, kitchen appliances and of course STOPPING SMOKING! I hope everything goes well with the gastro doc. Mine was great when I had to have part of my stomach and upper intestine removed and hooked to the remaining part of my stomach, essentially a gastric bypass . Luckily the lump was benign and the 2 holes in my stomach didn't do too much other organ damage! For 10 years I've lived on anti-nausea pills and gas-ex daily, and I have to watch what and how much I eat. My birthday was last Saturday and I had to make my dessert since I can't eat much on the sweet side. The upside is I'm 140 lbs.lighter than I was10 years ago! I'm praying for you.

minihorses I did a lot of research on laminate flooring when we built our house...it was finished in 2015. I wanted hardwood, at least originally but then I looked at laminate because it is what my daughter replaced her carpeting with and the look is amazing. We went with Pergo and it was fairly fast to install...the installer ordered way more flooring than was necessary but I was able to get a refund for the extra. It's pretty. It DOES show if something hard falls on it, it dents and there are places it doesn't look as nice as it did. If people took off their shoes when they come into the house, it would be a WHOLE lot easier to care for but that is not going to happen in my lifetime.

How do you think it would hold up with 4 cats? We live in an area whose 'dirt' is red clay, rock and sand and I've ruined a few vacuum cleaners with it. What's left of the 24 y.o. carpet doesn't help. Did I say carpet? Does duct tape count? My sister had the vinyl sheet that looks like hardwood put in their living room but it hasn't been long enough to get a review on it.

Dirt, dust, and cat hair are constants here. If someone comes in with little stones in the soles of their shoes, it is entirely possible that there will be small scratches on the flooring. I use a steam cleaner after I completely sweep the floors and dust mop. I have two indoor cats, one doesn't shed much, the other one is like having a pet dandelion going to seed...she leaves fur everywhere, despite the fact that I flea comb her and brush her at LEAST once a day. I think you might find the vinyl flooring will hold up better for you with the kind of clay, dirt, rock, and sand you are talking about. Get a color that won't show too much. My son and his wife had that kind of flooring in their last apartment and it really looked as good as the pergo but was much less expensive and much stronger.
